Research Abstract |
The effects of exercise on hypothalamic orexin(OX) neurons were assessed in type 2 diabetic model mice. Orexin controls the feeding behavior as well as the arousal level. C-Fos expression in hyothalamic orexin neurons is decreased in db/db mice. We found that exercise by treadmill running (6 m/min, 30 min) for 4 days increased c-Fos expression in orexin neurons of both db/db and db/m mice. Orexin mRNA levels in the hypothalamus tended to be increased in EX groups of both db/db and db/m mice.
